Mom's Surprise Birthday Party

My Mom, Myrna Ruth McEwen Christensen, turned 70 on 2 August 2010. So we planned a big surprise party for her. Since January all of my family has been planning this event. On Thursday 29 July 2010 I had a house full of family.
We had Ginelle and girls, David and Mary's family, Chantel and kids, and Marc all from Utah, Sammy came from Arizona. And Debbie came with her daughter on the train from Oregon.

Of course Sammy did everyones hair on Thursday night.


we hung out and then I sent everyone off to Heather's while Mom came to my house for a visit Friday afternoon.

On Friday night Rich and I took her out to dinner, then Saturday I took her to get a pedicure, and haircut and lunch out. I showed her the blog we made for her "All Things Myrna" which she loved, she cried when I told her we were making it into a book that was being shipped to her. She was so excited.
